- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,January 29 2009]
'Sathyameva Jayathe', the film that stars Dr. Rajashekar had its music album released on the 28th of this month and the occasion also paved the way for the hero of the film to clarify about the Nithu Chandra episode in which he was charged of manhandling the actress.
The occasion that took place at the Film Nagar Cultural Center was well attended and the audio cassettes were released by Sivani and Sivathmika. Sathyameva Jayathe's music album has been set to tunes by Chinna.
'Sathyameva Jayathe' has been produced by Sivani Sivathmika Movies and presented by Siri Media. The film has been directed by Rajashekar's wife Jeevitha. Speaking on the occasion Rajashekar said, 'Jeevitha is really my better half and she has worked with a lot of patience and diligence. I knew she is a very capable lady and that is why I wanted her to direct the film. You can say appointing her as the director is purely my selfishness'
Speaking about the Nithu Chandra episode, the actor said, 'on the final day of shooting she switched off her mobile phone and went off to her room to rest. That is not how a professional behaves. So I went there and warned her. I even told her that if she has this 'attitude' I'd ensure that she cannot act in any South Indian film. We spent over six Crores for making this film and this kind of behavior is simply unacceptable'.
'Once she went to Mumbai, she lied about the entire incident. I am a father of two girls and would I behave in such a way as she has claimed?' he questioned.
The actor further added that he has never ever raised his hand at any woman. 'I have never been violent to any man as well' he said. 'I was busy shooting and that is why I didn't clarify all these days'.
Jeevitha on her part said, 'each and every technician and artist has put in a lot of hard work for this film. That is why we wanted to release the music album along with everybody. Everybody has recognized me as an able director now. I wholeheartedly want to thank Rajashekar garu for giving me the opportunity'.
Prominent personalities who were present during the occasion include Chalapathi Rao, GV Sudhakar Naidu, Benarjee, Ahuthi Prasad, Sai Kiran, Sivaji, Arjun Rao, Master Athulith, Gautham Raju and many more.
